Here’s a follow-up to a blog we did about Honda’s Project Drive-In several months back.

Brownsville Drive-In has become the tenth drive-in theater to benefit from Honda’s Project Drive-In. With the end of 35mm film distribution, and the costly switch to digital projection, Honda created Project Drive-In as a national effort to save as many of America’s remaining drive-ins as possible. Through Project Drive-In, awareness was raised across the country and it offered communities simple ways to get involved and help preserve this historic part of American cinema and car culture.

The ten drive-in theaters that received support from Honda’s Project Drive-In were determined by more than two million votes at www.projectdrivein.com. Visitors to the site were encouraged to share Project Drive-In information with family and friends via social media, email or texts, then also pledged to see one movie at their local drive-in and contribute to the national save-the-drive-in fund to help keep more drive-ins in business.

“Honda is proud to have been a part of this effort to help preserve a key part of American cinema and car culture,” said Alicia Jones, manager of social media at American Honda Motor Co., Inc. “With drive-in season about to begin, the timing couldn’t be better for the Grindstone community to celebrate a small business where families can share the cinema experience together under the stars.”
